childhood game. i think i beat it the day i got it. i was really confused because i almost never beat games back then, and i was wondering where the rest of it was

short, silly fmv game. wish more of these were around

not a particularly bad game but definitely a downgrade from its predecessors. loses a lot of the hardcore appeal that smt is known for due to the ability to save anywhere and the fusion being significantly dumbed down (any demon can inherit anything now). disappointingly easy for a mainline title

this is a game

dropped this two chapters away from finishing it. it's just not anywhere near as good as its predecessors. story and characters suck balls, and the gameplay is way more tedious and drawn out thanks to long loading times

braindead platformer but fun and charming enough if you're a diehard fan of the show. can be finished in an hour or two

self aware, hilarious, and stupid as fuck fmv game that i'd rate higher if it wasn't so frustrating to play

interesting concept that isn't utilized well at all

nearly killed the series. would've been a bad way to go out. has high points but is plagued by a largely unlikable and unmemorable cast

wish the gameplay was half as good as the soundtrack. i remember future being way better

okay, firstly: shoutout to hattymikune's hard work for making it possible to read this with the ps3 version's voice acting before the official mangagamer release.

...chapter 8 itself is pretty polarizing. it's 50% tedious and boring writing, and 50% some of the best moments in the vn

fucking hate this shit. garbage payoff to a mystery that could've been interesting

paced like shit. stupid circumstances. boring in spite of some high points

the only chapter of higurashi that's anywhere near this good. well paced, thoroughly exciting and focused on the most interesting character in the whole vn by far

entertaining but not a ton happens. it's also much shorter than the previous chapters and feels more like an interlude to the answer arcs than a proper chapter
